6.Occasions

Your formal wear selecting depends on the occasion and your role in it.

Formal occasions include:

Weddings: Other than the bride and groom, formal wear is required for bridesmaids, best men, flower girls, and ring bearers. Wedding guests usually dress formally also.

Proms: Both boys and girls.

Quinceañeras: The birthday girl, her Damas and Chambeláns.

Baptism and First Communion occasions.

Homecoming and other formal parties.

Pageants.

...

Semi-formal occasions such as a cruise ship trip, a Las Vegas vacation, a night out to the ball room would be good times for you to dress up as well.

7.Styles

Here are some general considerations:

Forms and Shapes:

Silhouette or Shape of the Dress: Depends on the lady's figure.

A-Line style: It has a slimming shape, vertical seams from the shoulder down, and ends with a flared skirt, resembling a letter A shape. Some figure flaws can be hidden with this style.

Ball Gown style :A more traditional style, the Ball Gown - a dress with a full bodice with natural waistline and a full skirt - is elegant on most body shapes and helps to make your face, neck, and waist stand out while covering difficult hips.

Mermaid style : A narrow style with tight body and a skirt that flares at the knees. This style is less comfortable than the others. But if you are proud of your curvy body, then check out the Mermaid.

Sheath style : For the same body-fitting but more comfortable silhouette, the Sheath, similar to the Mermaid, closely follows the body line, and has no defined waistline. This style well accommodates shorter ladies, because its clean, horizontal line helps to create a taller image.

Note：That bridesmaid's dresses don't necessarily need to exactly match the bride's gown style, but they must not be too contradicting.

Neck Line: The dress neck line supports and gratifies your shoulders, chest, upper back, and your neck. There are many neck line styles:

Dress Length ： dictates the distance from the bottom of your dress to the ground. In general, the more formal your occasion is, the longer dress length you need to choose. A dress length is somewhere between Floor-Length (hemline is 1/2-2in from floor), Tea Length (8-10in from the floor), Ballet Length (hemline falls just above the ankles), and Mini Length (the shortest, with hemline falls just above the knees). Remember to take account of your shoes when you choose the length.

Dress Train Length ： determines how far the train on the bottom of the dress extends. Although a short train is suitable for any formal level, longer train lengths are more formal. If your occasion is outside, you probably wouldn't want a Monarch, which extends 3 yards from the waistline, because it'll get dirty on the ground. Instead, pick something shorter such as the Sweep, a short train 8 to 10 inches from the floor. Other trains include the Chapel (extends 1 1/2 yards from the waistline), and the Semi-Cathedral (2 1/2 yards). Some dresses have detachable or bustled train to be unloaded at the end of your main ceremony.

8. Colors

Your dress color is what catches people's eyes first. Choosing colors, of course, is a matter of taste ，but you should follow some general guidelines:

Matching Skin Tone:

In general, people tend to choose the dress color to match their skin tone. A darker-skinned lady may prefer to wear a black dress. But on the other hand, a lighter-skinned lady might also go with the black dress which helps contrasting her skin. Remember that, what looks great on another person may not be your choice at all, and vice versa.

Matching Other People's Dress Colors:

For occasions like weddings, if you are one of the bridesmaids, then you must follow the group's theme. The bride picks out a theme from a store, and registers the names of her bridesmaids and maid of honor. You will get your dress with the same theme (style and color), from that same store.
For Quinceanera dresses, the traditional color is pink; but other colors, especially white or light colors, have become popular as well. Bottom line is, it is YOUR big day, so pick the color YOU LIKE best. Your Damas' dresses should follow a common or similar theme too.
